Hi! I’m a student currently learning computer science in college and would love it if you had any advice for a cool personal project to do? Thanks!

Personal Project Ideas

Hiya!! 💕

It's so cool that you're a computer science student, and with that, you have plenty of options for personal projects that can help with learning more from what they teach you at college. I don't have any experience being a university student however 😅

Someone asked me a very similar question before because I shared my projects list and they asked how I come up with project ideas - maybe this can inspire you too, here's the link to the post [LINK]

However, I'll be happy to share some ideas with you right now. Just a heads up: you can alter the projects to your own specific interests or goals in mind. Though it's a personal project meaning not an assignment from school, you can always personalise it to yourself as well! Also, I don't know the level you are, e.g. beginner or you're pretty confident in programming, if the project sounds hard, try to simplify it down - no need to go overboard!!

But here is the list I came up with (some are from my own list):

Personal Finance Tracker

A web app that tracks personal finances by integrating with bank APIs. You can use Python with Flask for the backend and React for the frontend. I think this would be great for learning how to work with APIs and how to build web applications 🏦

Online Food Ordering System

A web app that allows users to order food from a restaurant's menu. You can use PHP with Laravel for the backend and Vue.js for the frontend. This helps you learn how to work with databases (a key skill I believe) and how to build interactive user interfaces 🙌🏾

Movie Recommendation System

I see a lot of developers make this on Twitter and YouTube. It's a machine-learning project that recommends movies to users based on their past viewing habits. You can use Python with Pandas, Scikit-learn, and TensorFlow for the machine learning algorithms. Obviously, this helps you learn about how to build machine-learning models, and how to use libraries for data manipulation and analysis 📊

Image Recognition App

This is more geared towards app development if you're interested! It's an Android app that uses image recognition to identify objects in a photo. You can use Java or Kotlin for the Android development and TensorFlow for machine learning algorithms. Learning how to work with image recognition and how to build mobile applications - which is super cool 👀

Social Media Platform

(I really want to attempt this one soon) A web app that allows users to post, share, and interact with each other's content. Come up with a cool name for it! You can use Ruby on Rails for the backend and React for the frontend. This project would be great for learning how to build full-stack web applications (a plus cause that's a trend that companies are looking for in developers) and how to work with user authentication and authorization (another plus)! 🎭

Text-Based Adventure Game

If you're interested in game developments, you could make a simple game where users make choices and navigate through a story by typing text commands. You can use Python for the game logic and a library like Pygame for the graphics. This project would be great for learning how to build games and how to work with input/output. 🎮

Weather App

Pretty simple project - I did this for my apprenticeship and coding night classes! It's a web app that displays weather information for a user's location. You can use Node.js with Express for the backend and React for the frontend. Working with APIs again, how to handle asynchronous programming, and how to build responsive user interfaces! 🌈

Online Quiz Game

A web app that allows users to take quizzes and compete with other players. You could personalise it to a module you're studying right now - making a whole quiz application for it will definitely help you study! You can use PHP with Laravel for the backend and Vue.js for the frontend. You get to work with databases, build real-time applications, and maybe work with user authentication. 🧮

Chatbot

(My favourite, I'm currently planning for this one!) A chatbot that can answer user questions and provide information. You can use Python with Flask for the backend and a natural language processing library like NLTK for the chatbot logic. If you want to mauke it more beginner friendly, you could use HTML, CSS and JavaScript and have hard-coded answers set, maybe use a bunch of APIs for the answers etc! This project would be great because you get to learn how to build chatbots, and how to work with natural language processing - if you go that far! 🤖

Another place I get inspiration for more web frontend dev projects is on Behance and Pinterest - on Pinterest search for like "Web design" or "[Specific project] web design e.g. shopping web design" and I get inspiration from a bunch of pins I put together! Maybe try that out!

I hope this helps and good luck with your project!

[murdotranscribes]

[Profile picture transcription: An eye shape with a rainbow flag covering the whites. The iris in the middle is red, with a white d20 for a pupil. End transcription.]

Hello! This is a blog specifically dedicated to image transcriptions. My main blog is @murdomaclachlan.

For those who don't know, I used to be part of r/TranscribersOfReddit, a Reddit community dedicated to transcribing posts to improve accessibility. That project sadly had to shut down, partially as a result of the whole fiasco with Reddit's API changes. But I miss transcribing and I often see posts on Tumblr with no alt text and no transcription.

So! Here I am, making a new blog. I'll be transcribing posts that need it when I see them and I have time; likely mainly ones I see on my dashboard. I also have asks open so anyone can request posts or images.

I have plenty of experience transcribing but that doesn't mean I'm perfect. We can always learn to be better and I'm not visually impaired myself, so if you have any feedback on how I can improve my transcriptions please don't hesitate to tell me. Just be friendly about it.

The rest of this post is an FAQ, adapted from one I posted on Reddit.

1. Why do you do transcriptions?

Transcriptions help improve the accessibility of posts. Tumblr has capabilities for adding alt-text to images, but not everyone uses it, and it has a character limit that can hamper descriptions for complex images. The following is a non-exhaustive list of the ways transcriptions improve accessibility:

They help visually-impaired people. Most visually-impaired people rely on screen readers, technology that reads out what's on the screen, but this technology can't read out images.

They help people who have trouble reading any small, blurry or oddly formatted text.

In some cases they're helpful for people with colour deficiencies, particularly if there is low contrast.

They help people with bad internet connections, who might as a result not be able to load images at high quality or at all.

They can provide context or note small details many people may otherwise miss when first viewing a post.

They are useful for search engine indexing and the preservation of images.

They can provide data for improving OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology.

2. Why don't you just use OCR or AI?

OCR (Optical Character Recoginition) is technology that detects and transcribes text in an image. However, it is currently insufficient for accessibility purposes for three reasons:

It can and does get a lot wrong. It's most accurate on simple images of plain text (e.g. screenshots of social media posts) but even there produces errors from time to time. Accessibility services have to be as close to 100% accuracy as possible. OCR just isn't reliable enough for that.

Even were OCR able to 100%-accurately describe text, there are many portions of images that don't have text, or relevant context that should be placed in transcriptions to aid understanding. OCR can't do this.

"AI" in terms of what most people mean by it - generative AI - should never be used for anything where accuracy is a requirement. Generative AI doesn't answer questions, it doesn't describe images, and it doesn't read text. It takes a prompt and it generates a statistically-likely response. No matter how well-trained it is, there's always a chance that it makes up nonsense. That simply isn't acceptable for accessibility.

3. Why do you say "image transcription" and not "image ID"?

I'm from r/TranscribersOfReddit and we called them transcriptions there. It's ingrained in my mind.

For the same reason, I follow advice and standards from our old guidelines that might not exactly match how many Tumblr transcribers do things.

[catgirltoofies]

i know... a bit of python? it depends on what you're trying to do?

short version: I'm trying to make a voice-to-text-to-speech program.

i have vosk for the speech recognition of the voice-to-text part and I'm 90% sure i can use Microsoft SAPI for the text-to-speech part.

i could use SAPI for speech recognition but I'm pretty sure vosk is more accurate without needing to train it a whole bunch.

i have an idea of how i want it to work, but i don't know the syntax of python, or how to use either of the APIs i want to use.

Can you generate a picture of a face?

I guess you'd have to ask scikit-learn? I've never used it myself (I'm used to doing everything with TensorFlow and my own code). There might be a simple answer. I think that scikit-learn and TensorFlow can do about the same things.

EDIT: OK, I looked it up, and here is a bit from their website:

Let's take the example of face recognition. We would like to measure the effectiveness of a particular method of face recognition. Here is the TF Python API for loading images: tf.load("MNIST_images.txt"). The code above loads a text file called "MNIST_images.txt" that contains 60,000 low-resolution images of pencils, houses, faces, etc. The purpose of the "tf.load" function in TensorFlow is simply to load files into memory for us to access as tensors.

We can use a function called save_image to save an image as a file. Here is a Python call to save_image saving a MNIST image with label 2 to an image called "2.png."

I can't really understand any of this stuff, I'm just going by what it says on their website

I think what they are trying to say is "if you have a file of images, you can put it into tensorflow, load it up and work with it. If you want to work with the data as a single tensor, or do some matrix operations on the data, you should be able to do it with tensorflow."

TensorFlow and scikit-learn use different methods to do different stuff, so it's hard to say how they might compare to each other. (At least, to me.)

Cognitive Services: Transforming Industries One Solution at a Time

A group of cloud-based APIs, SDKs, and services known as cognitive services are provided by a number of tech firms, most notably Microsoft. Their purpose is to let developers include intelligent features into their apps without the need for specialized knowledge in data science or artificial intelligence (AI). These services improve the usability and effectiveness of applications by enabling them to comprehend, interpret, and interact with sounds, pictures, human language, and other types of communication.

Important Aspects of Cognitive Services

a. Vision: Applications are able to comprehend and analyze visual input thanks to cognitive vision services. They are able to recognize objects, people, and text in pictures and evaluate them. For example, optical character recognition (OCR) can extract text from photos, and image classification may classify images into distinct groups. Face recognition software is helpful for identity verification, social media, and security applications since it can recognize, identify, and detect faces in images.

b. Voice: Speech services enable the recognition and synthesis of voice by apps. These include text-to-speech and speech-to-text conversions, as well as speaker recognition — the process of identifying particular speakers based only on their voice. These services are necessary to develop voice-activated assistants, transcribing services, and features that make content accessible to people with impairments.

c. Language: Natural language processing and comprehension are made possible by language services for apps. These include translation services that can translate text between languages and language understanding (LUIS), which enables applications to understand spoken or written language. Sentiment analysis is a kind of language services that helps organizations monitor social media sentiments or comprehend consumer feedback by identifying the emotional tone underlying words.

d. Decision: Using user data and behavior, decision services enable apps to make wise decisions. This includes anomaly detection, which finds odd patterns in data that might point to fraud or other problems, and content moderation, which can automatically remove objectionable information. This category of personalization services allows for the customization of user experiences according to personal preferences and historical behavior.

e. Search: Applications’ capacity to locate and obtain pertinent information is improved by search services. Cognitive services may be added to apps through the integration of these services, leading to more precise and beneficial search results. This covers picture and video searches as well as customized search engines made for certain businesses or uses.

The Advantages of Cognitive Services

Cognitive services have a number of important advantages. They democratize AI in the first place by making it possible for programmers of all backgrounds to include potent AI-driven features into their apps. This makes it easier for businesses to innovate by lowering the entrance barrier and allowing them to quickly prototype and implement smart solutions without investing a lot of money.

These services may also be easily scaled to meet the unique requirements of every application. Cognitive services are scalable and flexible enough to meet different demands from tiny startups to huge corporations.

To sum up, cognitive services are transforming the way apps engage with users by enhancing their intelligence, responsiveness, and comprehension of the intricacies of human communication. They spur innovation in a variety of sectors by enabling developers to produce more logical and captivating user experiences.
